Agent Eunice talks about the importance of staying open-minded, or sensitive and on guard of stereotypes.
Hi Eunice, you always seem to impress me with all your understanding ways. Yet Eunice, constructive interpersonal/intercultural behaviours are easier said than done. The illusion is extremely powerful, and it isn't all the time you will be ...able to keep an open mind. I mean it depends on your day to day mood, feeling, state of mind, and basically things that are out of your consciousness. Basically we operate in automatic mode you see, because it is energy conserving (ie your brain will tend to work in automatic mode because you are made that way to survive, though different people are automatic to different degrees), and so to keep an open mind all the time requires HERCULEAN ROUND THE CLOCK AWARENESS OR A HEIGHTENED SENSE THAT MIGHT DRIVE YOUR BRAIN CRAZY AND LAND YOU IN AN INSTITUTE FOR THE MENTALLY SICK. Yes, that can happen to you Eunice, given as I observed your huge sensitivity and heart for things and peoples of all kinds; and you might be so sensitive and aware, or emotional and interpersonal, you become un-moderated (lack of justice or moderation philosophy) and your brain or mind breaks down into pieces enough for you to land in a clinic! Rather Eunice, there are times when not keeping an open-mind keeps helps you to survive and keeps you regulated so that you don’t burn yourself and your energy stores and fall ill. Interpersonal and intercultural is good; but an obsession of it IS NOT GOOD! I’m waiting to see, Eunice, one instance where you lash out at or judge me severely, coldly, and non-interpersonally; I’m waiting to see if you can show me disrespect!
Now although things that require your prefrontal cortex to work with can be learned enough to be registered into your automatic mode, but what we are talking about is different individuals who are different every one of them, if not in culture then in person, and you meet them in the hundreds of thousands throughout the course of your work and interpersonal life, and you could never get your prefrontal cortex to learn every single one of them to such an extent it became automatic. It is because 1) you don’t meet them or work with them for enough time (ie quantity; a short time of perhaps 5-10 years I suppose for normal career jobs these days) and enough intensity and privacy (quality) of interaction, for your prefrontal cortex to learn them into automatic mode (ie your prefrontal cortex is always second guessing and on the look-out for changes in a person’s agent because very often people in the workplace are not role-playing and not behaving to their true colours with their families or otherwise, besides they are role-playing under performance stress and duress most times and all these affects people’s interpersonal and intercultural dispositions; it’s not like your husband whom you can be honest with because he is your closest confidante and whom you will have time to memorize into automatic inside out all his personality/interpersonal traits or otherwise because you intend to stay with him for a long, long time, 2) There are too many people for your prefrontal cortex to commit to memory or automatic, and normally, normal cortexes of human beings can process no more than 3-4 logic threads (and hence people) at once, even the brightest ones can at most keenly and effectively analyze and interpersonally/interculturally consider others in an open-minded and non stereotypical way 5-6 logic threads/people.
It would be more fair, Eunice, to say that we should be at least 60 percent of the time interpersonal/intercultural and non-stereotypical; alright maybe 70 percent if you are complaining I’m being such an ‘asshole’, for anything more is unjustified and asking too much of an imperfect being. In fact I would say 60 percent is like a miracle already! I think normal people in normal everyday mode are no more than 20-30 percent interpersonal or using their prefrontal cortex to perceive subjects. They are mostly on automatic mode or stereotyping!!
No expert communication author writes this, for nobody would buy their book if they wrote an anti-thesis to their principles of communication, only I would write such stuff, because I don’t need the money for now! Haha!
Cheers to Eunice
